JML (John Mills Ltd) is a UK based company who specialise in sourcing and supplying TV products to retailers and consumers. We operate a global supply chain, managed by our Product Development team in the UK. Most of our products are sourced from China which represents the area of greatest risk of exposure to, and association with slavery and human trafficking. Procedures in place include polices covering corporate social responsibility, ethical trading, working conditions, child labour, Health & Safety and training for relevant people within the business.

JML are committed to ensure the wellbeing of all involved in the manufacture and supply of our products. We recognise the ETI base code as the minimum level of compliance and require all our factories to sign up to our code of conduct to ensure procedures are in place to cover the following

We require all factories producing goods with an annual turnover with JML of over $100,000 to be audited annually by a third-party audit company. JML will work with suppliers to find suitable solutions where factories are not meeting the requirements of the code. However, in cases of persistent breaches of the code or lack of willingness to take corrective action, we reserve the right to discontinue the relationship.
